Anybody? Bueller?

I know we have quite a few military folks that read this blog, so I am hoping one of y'all can tell me what these are and their use. They say property of the US Army Air Force on them and have a 5 digit number on one of the tailfins. They look like dummy practice bombs to me, but I never served. My buddies grandfather gave them to him when he died and they have been door stops for the last few years. They weigh about 24 beers and are about four beer cans tall each (What? How do you weigh and measure things). If anybody can tell me what they are I would appreciate it

Bassically yea glorified doorstops. They are nothing more than dress for winding people thru ropes like going to a bank. It's been many years since the last time I had to lug stuff like that for anything strange thing is I kinda miss those days. And hell it was easier to move those than to move the real stuff.

FOD is the brainchild of Paul, who hates Mondays almost as much as he hates the Cooncracker. You don't have to fly the one fingered salute. But it helps. Send your picture to gravdigr@cebridge.net Put FOD in the subject line.

Drunken Fools

Pure Genius

A woman drove me to drink and I didn't even have the decency to thank her.~W.C. Fields

Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.~Benjamin Franklin

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.~Hunter S. Thompson

I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, That's as good as they're going to feel all day.~Frank Sinatra

Here's to a long life and a merry oneA quick death and an easy oneA pretty girl and an honest oneA cold beer and another one!~Author Unknown

Once during Prohibition, I was forced to live for days on nothing but food and water.~W.C. Fields

Well ya see, Norm, it's like this.... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

~Cliff Clavin

Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza.

~ Dave Barry

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

~Henny Youngman

Our Lager which art in barrelsSwallowed be thy drinkAt home, as it is in the tavernForgive our spillagesAs we forgive those who spill against usLead us not into incarcerationBut deliver us from hangoverFor thine is the beer, the bitter and the barley.Barmen~The Beer's Prayer

Alcohol May Be Man's Worst Enemy

But The Bible Says Love Your Enemy

~ Frank Sinatra

That's the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink…If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen. - Charles Bukowski

The liver is evil and must be punished. - Author Unknown

I would kill everyone in this room for a drop of sweet beer. -Homer Simpson

Write drunk; edit sober. - Ernest Hemingway

I take every day one beer at a time, one beer every sip at a time. - Dennis Leary
